Bert, I believe I heard Nader say that nuclear waste would be poisonous to humans and animals 250,000 years after it came out of a reactor. Is this your understanding of the material that you were engineering around? If so, do you have a model of the human race that would account for handling waste for more than 250,000 years? If you put a sign on a pile saying, 'Don't touch this shit!' do you think anyone would even be able to read the language after 250,000 years?
